Cleaner/Degreaser protects metal parts from corrosion.

VpCI(TM)-418 LM non-foaming, heavy-duty alkaline cleaner/degreaser is suited for cleaning industrial, oil field, commercial, marine equipment, and parts. It contains Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors (VpCI(TM)) and is nitrite-free, non-toxic, and silicate free. Able to remove heavy hydrocarbons, greases, drawing, and buffing compounds, as well as mill and machinery oils, it leaves no residual film...

Underfill Material enables recovery of substrates and PCBs.

Manufactured in lead-free environments, LoctiteÃ-® 3536 underfill material is designed to fill space beneath fine-pitch CSP and BGA packages. It cures at low temperature which minimizes thermal stress to other components on printed circuit board and allows for in-line curing. Product protects solder joints against mechanical strains such as shock, drop, and vibration, and offers manufacturing...

Single-Pellet Compounds deliver enhanced effects.

LNP(TM) Verton(TM) Xtreme compounds - XC (extreme color), XFR (extreme flame retardance), and XW (extreme weatherability) - promote batch-to-batch consistency and help achieve optimal mechanical properties of long-glass-fiber reinforcement. Resistant to impact failure, compounds can be processed using standard and gas-assist injection molding, structural foam molding, and injection-compression...

Joint Seal features double-sided design.

Featuring acrylic-impregnated cellular foam core, SEISMIC COLORSEAL-DS fills and seals interior and exterior of structural joint openings in single step while insulating and attenuating sound. Both visible outer faces are coated with low-modulus, colored silicone bellows. Eliminating screws, anchors, and embedments, material self expands and is connected to substrates by inherent active...
